Socialist Party of Spain

The Socialist Party of Spain was a socialist political party that existed in Spain from 1848 to 1936. The PS supported the 1868 revolution that overthrew the monarchy of Spain, and it agreed with the Federal Democratic Republican Party on its trade, citizenship, and war policies, while it argued that Spain should be dechristianized (that atheism should be the prevalent belief) and that Spain should have a planned economy run by the government. The party would have popular support, and it joined the Frente Popular during the 1930s.
